thanks, I have been through all that, interesting, but the author refers to obama's ring as a wedding ring, when clearly it's not...however, I agree with his conclusion:

This photo is a complete composite fabrication intended to perpetuate the lie that Barack Obama attended and graduated from Columbia University and was subsequentlyvisited by his grandparents.

If you look at obama's right arm and shoulder, it's clear he was DELIBERATELY POSED to fit into the composition. The angle of the arm and shoulder is exactly the same as Madelyns.

my tin foil hat is firmly affixed to head; I was going to mention in my “obsessed with the bench picture” post that I think most of early BHO photo’s looked photoshopped, but I have too little experience with photography to have an informed opinion. What I notice about them is my instinctive reaction -— many of them just look OFF to me — compositionally odd.

FRED NERKS: Did you see this paragraph in the link from rolling stone about the BHO, Sr arrival gathering in Hawaii? Do you buy it? that BHO was photoshopped into the picture:

“Below is the same photo (Photo 5-B) with the gamma drive lowered to zero and the black-point aspects also lowered to zero. A very slight exposure reduction reveals the individual who has beenartificially added to the photo. You guessed it—Barack Obama, Sr. He has become a white man in a silver-gray suit.

This phenomenon occurs because his image is foreign to the original lighting aspects of the entire photograph. The editing effect darkens the non-white clothes, yet Obama’s suit has become light silver in appearance.

Notice that the black sailorin the front row is still black. That is because he was added to the photo in a separate layer, prior to the layer in which Obama was added.”
